Description

Explore the complex relationship between culture and urban planning with this academic text from Routledge. While many planning debates treat culture as a fixed resource or a simple category of behavior, this book shifts the focus toward understanding how we use the concept of culture in research and practice. By examining culture as a socio-historical concept, the text introduces both established and recent scholarship to explain what culture does and why it matters in a planning context. This approach helps researchers and students move beyond asking what culture is, instead looking at the practical implications of the term. Through various case studies from different planning contexts, the book provides a practical look at these theoretical ideas. It is an essential resource for those studying anthropology, sociology, or urban planning who want to understand the deeper role of culture in shaping social and historical landscapes.
